Joyeux Action de Graces
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you ... the harvest is in (well, almost ... Saskatchewan farmers have about 85% of the grain in the bin ... the rest will have to wait until the blizzard is done
 ) and it's time to kick back, gorge on turkey and pumpkin pie, good Canadian beer, wine, and whiskey, and be thankful that we live in a prosperous, free, safe country. Vive le Canada. |

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
They're still getting the grain in but there's a blizzard?
Going to be a long winter? Well, enjoy it anyway, Eric. |

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
Thank you Margaret and Dave. We're cooking our Thanksgiving turkey on Sunday with traditional stuffing and all the trimmings. After this long and very hot, dry summer I must say the cooler weather is welcome. The leaves are starting to fall like snow - but I hope the white stuff holds off for a while yet

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
It's been a lovely day, although there's a frost warning tonight (got to bring in the remaining tomatoes and cover the Kohlrabi.) We went for a nice drive in the countryside, and enjoyed a good turkey dinner with mashed turnip, scalloped potatoes, German style red cabbage, broccoli pie, beet root, mushroom gravy and of course, stuffing. There's plenty to share with our elderly neighbours and some to feed ourselves for a few days. Miss Pris was eagerly awaiting for some turkey meat to appear in her food bowl. She's well fed now and happily asnooze. Hubby and I are hoping to stay awake for tonight's Clinton/Trump debate (Good grief! Can this get any worse?) but we'll see. Happy Thanksgiving Eric and all my Canadian friends and family. Thank you and Happy Autumn to my AccyWeb friends

Re: Joyeux Action de Graces
I could be vegetarian except for my love of bacon.
If ever I am in a coma the two aromas that would revive me is the smell of frying bacon and the scent of toast. If they waft that under my nose and I do not rise, then to be sure....I'm dead!
